Selank

A peptide associated with calming effects and stress response modulation.

A synthetic, nootropic, and anxiolytic peptide derived from the natural human protein tuftsin. It reduces anxiety, boosts cognitive function (memory, focus), and supports immune health without the addictive or sedative effects of traditional medications.

Key Details About Selank:

• How it Works: Selank acts as a GABAergic modulator, increasing brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and balancing neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine.

• Forms: Primarily available as a nasal spray, but also in subcutaneous injection form.

• Side Effects: Generally well-tolerated, with very few side effects reported in studies.

• Usage: Often used in functional medicine for stress resilience and cognitive optimization.
